I've installed firebug and I'm viewing http://hardins.com/retail3.htm
I'm getting this error: map is undefined loadMapJSON(Object version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8 feed=Object)retail3.htm (line 166) (?)()values?a...adMapJSON (line 1) [Break on this error] map.addOverlay(marker); It seems that I can only get one or the other working (either the local search, or the pulling information from a spread sheet working) http://hardins.com/retail3.htm has the local search working, and it has all of the code in it to make it pull in information from a spreadsheet, just something isn't working. I'm having a hardtime pinpointing what it is.
